The Perfect Life
Episode 25's

That morning, sunlight slowly appeared on the horizon, scattering the golden light that split the clouds and swept across the calm sea surface. The beach opens in front of Alby, stretching wide with clean and soft white sand under his steps.

A gentle gust of wind caressed his face, carrying the fresh scent of sea water that blew ashore. The sound of the waves shrinking rhythmically like a calm breath, providing calmness and harmony for the atmosphere of a newly awakened morning. Blue clear sky that has not been created by a single cloud adds to the beauty of the beach panorama. There was a group of seagulls passing through the air with their distinctive, earthy sounds.

Along the beach, there are some people walking leisurely, breathing the fresh air in the morning and enjoying the beauty of nature. Some of them were sitting on the sand watching the waves coming and going in rhythm. And some others choose to soak in the ocean.

The morning atmosphere on the beach provides a refreshing energy and a deep sense of peace. In this tranquility, it feels as if time pauses, making Alby forget about everyday life and connect with the enchanting wonders of nature.

Alby sat on the white sand staring at some people who were playing sea water and joking with each other. His eyes were on a woman laughing with a child. They were playing with water and splashing at each other. Alby smiled faintly. There was a mixture of emotions when looking at the Nazis who played sea water with their children. There was warmth present filling his heart. Alby felt the excitement of seeing the two of them enjoying the beautiful moment by the beach, with the sunlight radiating above their heads.

However, there is also a complicated and slightly melancholy feeling when remembering the woman when she is sad. Like last night. Somehow Alby felt sick when he saw and heard the Nazi stuffing. He wanted to hug the woman and tell her to lean against him and calm her down. He doesn't know. The feeling suddenly appeared. He sighs. He only hoped that the Nazi sadness would quickly pass and change happily.

"Ehhh."

Deheman's voice turned Alby. Then he smiled. Forced.

"Totally serious. Look at what again, anyway?" Frida asked and immediately sat down beside Alby. Almost without distance. His arms and Alby's arms almost touched.

Alby reflexes a little bit away.

Frida looked disappointed. "Don't you like it near me?" Frida's face looked gloomy.

"It's not so, Mom. Not good to see people." Alby gave an excuse. Lies. To be honest, he did not like being close to the woman. He was uncomfortable being around her. He wanted the woman to get away from him so that he could look back at the woman who was about fifty meters away from him who was playing in the water. He's a little upset. Can only grumble in the heart.

"I told you, Don't call me by formal call. We're not on campus." Face pouting. He felt very old to be called mother in a place like this. Yes, although his age is far adrift with Alby. But she still looks young and beautiful. Frida grinned herself.

Alby looked astonished.

Frida cleared her back. Disguise his embarrassment because he was found grinning alone. "What are you thinking?" Frida asked to distract.

"Nothing is." Alby answered.

"Then anyway? You were so serious."

Very curious, Mom. It's not my mother's business what I think. Alby spoke in his heart. Own upset. Fun disturbed. "What time do we leave, ma'am?" Alby asked about their return. He did not answer Frida's question and heeded her command to call her name. After all, Alby felt a bit uneasy if he called the dean with his usual name. They are nearly ten years old. Alby even called her aunt. Alby did not think about the woman who was next to him.

"You deliberately avoided. It seems you're thinking about the woman there." Frida kept her eyes fixed on her question as she glanced at the Naziya who was playing with Naya. "You know him?"

Alby sighed softly. It seemed that the woman beside him would not stop until he got what he wanted. Alby finally nodded. Resignedly.

"Who is he? Your new boyfriend?" Frida asked impatiently and slightly disliked. He was jealous of Alby watching other women.

Frida ber oh-lega. Nodding. Then back to asking.  "You still remember your wife?"

"Loh, Miss Frida." Vita came suddenly from behind. Not immediately say hello because surprised to see the dean of the faculty there. Just as he was about to head out to sea to join his older brother and sister, he accidentally saw Alby chatting with a woman. He came to say hello to Alby. However, it was unexpected that the woman who was with Alby was Frida-dean at her Faculty.

Both look at it simultaneously.

Frida wonder.

Alby. Although not too fond of the existence of Vita, he was a little grateful for being free from the pressure of Frida's existence.

Vita smiled and then greeted the two. "Good morning, Miss Frida, Mr. Alby."

"Why are you here?" Frida finally asked after a while. He did know the student because he was one of the outstanding students in his faculty.

"I'm on a family vacation, Mom," replied Vita. He then glanced briefly at the man beside his dean. Smilingly.

Frida ber oh while nodding.

"Mother's on vacation with Mr Alby?" Vita asked curiously. He only sees Frida and Alby. There was no staff or anyone he knew. Do not let the dean undergo a special relationship with his lecturer. Oh naw. Vita couldn't imagine it. He will be very disappointed. In fact, if the assumption is correct, indeed Mr. Alby is very outrageous. His lecturer's time was willing to have a relationship with a woman who was much older than him? Moreover, his dean was famous for his fierceness and sinister face. Vita shuddered in horror. His mind was everywhere, but not for a minute he greeted them.

"No. This is a special holiday for the Faculty of Management and Business." Frida put on her campus face.

Vita biting lips. "Oh. Sorry, Mom, if you're interrupting. I'll go there first." Vita finally broke down. He was afraid to see the face of his dean who began to roar. "Sir, I'm sorry." He then tells Alby and then walks to Naziya and Naya.

"Loh, Vita knows that woman too?" Frida asks because she saw Vita joining and playing with Naziya and Naya.

"The doctor is Vita's sister" Alby explained Frida's astonishment.

"You know where it came from?" Frida looked back suspiciously.

Alby was increasingly unhappy with the dean's attitude. Too childish. Not according to his age. "I met them last night."

"Oh that's why you're late for the inn?" Frida acts like Alby is her partner.

"Sorry, Mom. I'll go inside first." Alby finally couldn't stand it. He decided to leave. It's up to the dean to be angry. Alby doesn't care. Alby's patience is over. If left alone, Frida will be even more ignorant.

While Frida, she gazes in annoyance at Alby who left her just like that.

And beyond that, it turns out that the Nazis occasionally glanced at Alby and the woman who was beside him during their conversation. He also knew that Alby kept looking at them when the woman had not yet joined.
